My dear Student

Your certificate and letterEditorial Note: See 163A.27.029 with newspaper articleEditorial Note: The July 18 issue of the Chicago Tribune included an article titled “Mind Curing” with some details about the history and practice of Christian Science, and the Chicago Christian Scientist Association. The article was by “Reliable.” It is possible that this is Brown’s article that Eddy is referencing here. both came together todayAs Written:to day

Bravo! young lady, your wit at the close of the article was just the thing, but my dear, your wisdom in borrowing so much where quotations were not given is questionable but others whom I would feel disgraced by doing so follow the example.

You are capable of writing from out your own thoughts. Now you did well, where it was original, this shows you that it is so

Your article was ingenious and will do good I had just sent by Mrs Sherman and sister the other certificates, and will try to get yours off with them

Lovingly yours
M B G Eddy
